Les installations des grandes infrastructures sont aujourd’hui soumises à défis de préservation sans précédent. Leur sauvegarde nécessite une approche innovante que rend possible la mise en place nouvelles politiques publiques qui les reconnaissent au sein du patrimoine culturel xxe siècle. Dans ce domaine, chaîne services autoroutiers italienne a constitué expérience unique Europe. Elle été l’...

Abstract Positive displacement expanders are widely investigated and theirs models commonly use the REFPROP database to evaluate fluid properties. However, estimating procedures in CFD using result heavy of CPU time. Therefore, a study has been carried out determine if simpler methods for property estimation suitable. The ANSYS CFX solver used includes number cubic equations state, namely, Redl...

The dynamic behavior of primate (Macaca fascicularis) inhibitory burst neurons (IBNs) during head-fixed saccades was analyzed by using system identification techniques. Neurons were categorized as IBNs on the basis of their anatomic location as well as by their activity during horizontal head-fixed saccadic and smooth pursuit eye movements and vestibular nystagmus. Each IBN's latency or "dynami...

t has been nearly 30 years since the first scholars began s t u dying men’s health. Early wo rks had provo c at ive titles like “The Hazards of Being Male”1 and “Socialized to Die Younger.”2 Although these authors stimulated new interest in men’s health, little came of it. It was, perhaps, difficult to sell the idea that men, as a group, were endangered; mortality statistics about their compara...

PURPOSE A variety of procedures have been described for the treatment of total colonic aganglionosis (TCA); however, there is no consensus as to a superior operative method. The objective of this review is to evaluate the operative methods used to treat TCA and their effectiveness with respect to morbidity, mortality, rates of enterocolitis, and functional outcomes. METHODS We searched Medlin...

Immune checkpoint inhibitor (ICI) therapy has revolutionized cancer treatment, but patient response remains variable. Substantial research been focused on understanding the tumor-intrinsic and tumor-extrinsic factors underlying response. Recently, gut microbiome emerged as a modulator of ICI in both human patients mouse tumor models. Antibiotic treatment deleterious effects efficacy retrospecti...

A variety of microbial communities and their genes (microbiome) exist throughout the human body, playing fundamental roles in human health and disease. The NIH funded Human Microbiome Project (HMP) Consortium has established a population-scale framework which catalyzed significant development of metagenomic protocols resulting in a broad range of qualitycontrolled resources and data including s...

This paper reports a numerical investigation of the transcritical droplet vaporization phenomena. The simulation is based on the time-dependent conservation equations for liquid and gas phases, pressure-dependent variable thermophysical properties, and a detailed treatment of liquid-vapor phase equilibrium at the droplet surface. The numerical solution of the two-phase equations employs an arbi...

the basics of quantum mechanics and statistical thermodynamics were used to predict the potential energy and intermolecular forces of asphaltene molecules. the parameters associated with the chemical structure were also estimated for a specific asphaltene molecule to predict the mie potential function. based on the structural results, a new form of the virial eos with peneloux correction was de...
